The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Compare and contrast- that "almost picnic atmosphere of citizens protesting the botch job done on the Reflecting Pool, with National Guard troops, summoned by Trump, making arrests....

With January 6th and protestors beating police with flagpoles, breaking windows, shitting in the Capitol, building gallows and hunting for Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi in the Capitol hallways.

And here's a key...... DONALD TRUMP REFUSED TO CALL OUT THE NATIONAL GUARD TO CONFRONT THAT TRAVESTY. BUT HE DID CALL THEM OUT TO KEEP TOURISTS FROM PHOTOGRAPHING HIS EMBLEMATIC FAILURE AT THE REFLECTING POOL.

So now Dope is focused on a botched job at the Reflecting Pool, a handful (as in a "few") protestors getting rowdy, but not violent...... and trying his best to claim that these few protestors are emblematic of the "violent left" and deserved everything they got (which wasn't much, because even the National Guard knew it was on a fool's errand).

Good god.... the stupid still burns.
